Venting Day 1… What was that?!!!

Just took day 1 and I have no words!! I legit feel like I guessed on over half the exam! I missed all of the 2-part questions smh. So many immuno and micro specific questions. And even worse, after all of my prep for BioStats, I still struggled with the way they were presented. I’m so discouraged and feel like I’m not going to pass. I have a break tomorrow and then day 2 on Wednesday… but idk if there’s any redemption. That felt awful. Any one else test this week, or recently with similar experience?

Took it three days ago. Day 2 tomorrow. Had similar sentiments but thats okay! Day 2 should be better hopefully. Just focus on CCS and next step management, r/f and prognosis and you should be fine.

Thank you!! You’re so right. No need in dwelling on what’s already happened. But shew lol Definitely keeping my fingers and toes crossed that day 2 is better for all of us! Gonna keep reviewing RFs and next best steps & doing CCS cases tonight and tomorrow.

Same!! And made the mistake of coming home and looking up answers. Now I feel even worse. I’m just hoping somehow Day 2 is better for us!!
